Portrait is the most luring part of photography...Foe example flaws in an individual's face can be accentuated, if not cared for,, it is therefore, pertinent for the subject to be in good getup of MAKE-UP. Appropriate make up can transform a model to give the required face-lift. This will also help disguise greasy and shiny faces and help them make non-reflective.Unkempt finger-nails and messy hair will also need attention, i

Live musical programs....(post no.143).

Generally there are concerts, other musical programs in ur town or may be near town......It is most interesting to shoot pictures of artists performing....I saw that when I reach near them, though below the stage, they look getting extra energy.....it is magic of photography.....I am close to VIP there. It is more interesting too, that it looks compulsory to take pictures of the first row people (though, thus covering many rows behind), who while watching camera becomes aware of their alertness to give a good pose (may be published in next day's newspaper).......Stage, I cover from various angles, because the artists behind playing instruments are too curious to come in the field view of the camera lens.......I go up on stage to get them close sometimes and they feel obliged. If in next concert if I happened to meet them, I get a bigger smile and hand iver copies of photos I took of them, which is beyond their imagination....and for next time they are more conscious and give a better pose and play the instrument wonderfully well.

Any camera will do....camphones, to compacts to SLRs....But if u are close to be a professional, use SLR FOR BEST RENDERING THE IMAGES.....Though, this time above, I shot them with my Canon compact.....Not to worry upro 5x7 at ISO 200 with good stage lighting with compacts......If tripod is used, better shoot at ISO80 or 100 on compacts.. With DSLRs use aperture priority with + or - compensation, one stop if necessary. f5.6 or 8 are good apertures.(above prog I took last week).

About Me

The art of photography is all about light and exposure....LIGHT means the surroundings around you and exposure denote the use of Camera, may be of any kind,sorry, here film and digital compact, prosumer, or DSLRs.It is day light, with sun, clouds, shades under tree, verandah,shadow beside a wall.It is night with darkness but with lots of hopes in lighted areas anywhere,fireworks...the choice is urs to exploit above to the best in simple or pictorial terms...A little bit to remind you of finding out good angles, giving correct exposure with the source of light before you to avoid disappoints...Oh...no disappointments...You have to check easily on LCDs the result immediately and change settings accordingly for the best in front of your camera. Next there is no limitation in memory cards. With good number of memory cards with you, thousands of pictures can be shot. THERE is the best friend in COMPUTER to load and check, retain, delete,correct images as per your liking, storing them in CDs/DVDs....Having few prints hanging on your wall to let you know of your art.
